It was quite a heartbreaking moment for fans when Maria Sharapova decided to retire at the Australian Open 2020. The former American player was just 32 at that moment and fans didn’t expect her to make the move this quickly. Although she has retired from the sport, she still has an association with sporting brands like Nike.
Recently, Maria Sharapova took up the task of promoting Nike’s spring campaign. As a part of this, she wore a complete black Nike outfit along with black trousers. In addition to this, she also wore Nike’s black shoes to compliment her overall look. The 5-time Grand Slam champion was looking beautiful and quite stylish in her outfit during the photoshoot in New York City.
“Nike’s Spring Campaign captured on a winter’s day in NYC. Strong and hopeful in emotion but raw and foggy in reality. Sounds all too familiar, doesn’t it?” tweeted Sharapova.
